Oh man, haven’t had this much fun in years. My kids had this on Xbox 360 when it came out. Never got a turn to play it. Finally got it for my SteamDeck and it’s great. If you like GOW then you’ll like this!

Fun game. I love sliding and slowing time to shoot robots, it makes me feel like nothing can stop me, until the overheat hits and I die. Story is kinda there tbf. Also Rocket launcher is so broken. Wished the disk

The gameplay is sooo fluid and very easy to get into. This game is real fun, a underrated masterpiece for sure. Story is short and sweet but feels a bit rushed unfinished but still decent. Overall a solid 8/10 I enjoyed

Yo, so in the future Earth is running out of power and stuff. America has this giant space colony called Providence that shoots energy down to us. Then these badass Russian bad guys called the Order of the Russian Star

Style over cover ALWAYS. Pros: Sam is a very cool character, the game has aged okay, the gameplay mechanics can be VERY high ceiling if you do not know what you are doing, I recommend watching Ziko on YT to see crazy
